Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of mycotoxin detection, and in particular relates to a benzo[a]pyrene flow lag time resolved fluorescence rapid detection kit and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) is a chronic teratogenic and carcinogenic substance. Long-term exposure to air containing B[a]P can cause chronic poisoning. It primarily enters the human body through food or water, is absorbed through the intestines, and circulates throughout the body, accumulating in the mammary glands and adipose tissue. Benzo[a]pyrene is a strong irritant to the skin and eyes and is a mutagen and carcinogen that can cause human diseases. Animal studies have shown that B[a]P ingested directly can enter the fetus through the placenta, causing varying degrees of toxicity and carcinogenicity. Benzo[a]pyrene is excreted in feces after passing through detoxification organs such as the liver and kidneys. Benzo[a]pyrene excrement can be applied to the land as fertilizer, contaminating crops and ultimately affecting human health. Benzo[a]pyrene is more toxic than aflatoxin and is not only the most toxic of the PAHs but also one of the most abundant, comprising approximately one-fifth of all carcinogenic PAHs in the environment. Animal experimental studies have shown that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, especially 3,4-benzo[a]pyrene, are related to lung cancer in animals and humans and are the cause of lung cancer.

[0003] With the continuous improvement of living standards, people have higher and higher requirements for food quality and safety. In order to improve the quality and safety of food in my country and meet people's safe consumption needs to a greater extent, accurate and efficient detection technology for benzo[a]pyrene in food is urgently needed.

[0004] Currently, the main methods for detecting benzo[a]pyrene are instrumental analysis and immunoassays. Instrumental analysis methods, such as high-performance liquid chromatography and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, offer high sensitivity and accuracy. However, these methods are expensive, require complex and time-consuming sample pretreatment, and require a high laboratory environment, making rapid detection difficult. Immunoassays, based on the specific recognition and reversible binding reaction between antigens and antibodies, offer high selectivity and sensitivity. Compared to instrumental analysis, they significantly simplify and shorten sample processing time, saving testing costs.

[0005] Due to the increasing trend of benzo[a]pyrene contamination in cereals reported in numerous publications in recent years, there is an urgent need for rapid on-site detection technologies for benzo[a]pyrene contamination to ensure food safety in my country. Currently, there are no immunofluorescence time-resolved detection kits for benzo[a]pyrene detection on the market. Summary of the Invention

After a reaction time of 6 to 10 minutes, the test is performed using a time-resolved fluorescence tester to obtain the ratio of the fluorescence intensity value of the test line (T) on the fluorescent test strip to the fluorescence intensity value of the quality control line (C); based on the pre-obtained relationship curve between the ratio of the fluorescence intensity of the test line of the fluorescent test strip to the fluorescence intensity of the quality control line (T / C) and the benzo[a]pyrene concentration, the benzo[a]pyrene content in the sample solution to be tested is obtained.

[0027] According to the above scheme, the sample to be tested is edible vegetable oil, and the pretreatment steps of the sample to be tested are: ultrasonic extraction of the edible vegetable oil with n-hexane, taking the supernatant, diluting it 8-12 times with water, then adding immunomagnetic beads coupled with anti-benzo[a]pyrene monoclonal antibodies, vortex mixing, discarding the supernatant, adding methanol and vortex mixing, and diluting it with a sample release solution to obtain the supernatant, which is the sample solution to be tested.

[0033] (3) The relationship curve between the ratio of the fluorescence intensity of the test line of the fluorescent test strip to the fluorescence intensity of the quality control line (T / C) and the concentration of benzo[a]pyrene was obtained by fitting.

[0034] In this study, a benzo[a]pyrene monoclonal antibody was coupled with a rare earth element europium labeling reagent to develop a highly sensitive benzo[a]pyrene time-resolved fluorescence immunochromatographic test strip. A time-resolved fluorescence immunochromatographic method was also established. This method has the advantages of high sensitivity, stable properties, avoidance of fluorescence background interference, and short detection time (generally only 6-8 minutes). It is very suitable for the development of rapid pesticide residue detection methods and can achieve rapid and sensitive detection of benzo[a]pyrene.

The test strip was applied to actual sample testing, and the test results compared with HPLC methods showed a recovery rate between 90.3% and 110.2%, with a correlation coefficient of 0.987 (R²), indicating its applicability to actual sample testing of benzo[a]pyrene. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0037] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the fluorescent test strip in the benzo[a]pyrene flow lag immunoassay time-resolved fluorescence rapid test kit provided by the present invention. In the figure: 1 sample pad, 2 test line, 3 quality control line, 4 absorbent pad. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific implementation cases.

[0039] Example 1: Preparation of anti-benzo[a]pyrene monoclonal antibodies

[0040] The anti-benzo[a]pyrene monoclonal antibody is secreted by the BBBE1H1 hybridoma cell line with a deposit number of CCTCC NO: C201882, and is prepared by:

[0041] The anti-benzo[a]pyrene monoclonal antibody hybridoma cell line BBBE1H1 was injected into BALB / c mice that had been pre-treated with Freund's incomplete adjuvant. The ascites of the mice were collected, and the antibodies were purified using the octanoic acid-ammonium sulfate method. The specific operation was as follows: the mouse ascites was filtered through double filter paper, centrifuged at 12,000 rpm at 4°C for more than 15 minutes, and the supernatant was aspirated. The resulting ascites supernatant was mixed with 4 volumes of acetate buffer, and octanoic acid was slowly added with stirring. The volume of octanoic acid required per milliliter of ascites was 30-35 μL. The mixture was mixed at room temperature for 30-60 minutes and allowed to stand at 4°C for more than 2 hours. 12000r / min, centrifuge at 4℃ for more than 30min, discard the precipitate, filter the obtained supernatant with double filter paper, add 1 / 10 volume of filtrate with a molar concentration of 0.1mol / L and a pH of 7.4 phosphate buffer, adjust the pH of the mixture to 7.4 with 2mol / L sodium hydroxide solution, slowly add ammonium sulfate in an ice bath to a final concentration of ammonium sulfate of 0.277g / mL, let it stand at 4℃ for more than 2h, then centrifuge at 12000r / min, 4℃ for more than 30min, discard the supernatant, and resuspend the obtained precipitate with 1 / 10 volume of original ascites water with a molar concentration of 0.01mol / L and pH of 7.4 phosphate buffer, put it into a dialysis bag, dialyze it with 0.01mol / L PBS for two days, and then dialyze it with PB for two days. Remove the protein solution in the dialysis bag, centrifuge, collect the supernatant, discard the precipitate, pre-freeze it at -70℃, and then freeze-dry it in a freeze dryer. Collecting the lyophilized powder is the purified anti-benzo[a]pyrene monoclonal antibody;

[0042] The acetate buffer solution is prepared by adding water to 0.29 g of sodium acetate and 0.141 mL of acetic acid to make the volume to 100 mL; the 0.01 mol / L phosphate buffer solution is prepared by adding water to 0.8 g of sodium chloride, 0.29 g of disodium hydrogen phosphate dodecahydrate, 0.02 g of potassium chloride, and 0.02 g of potassium dihydrogen phosphate to make the volume to 100 mL; the 0.1 mol / L phosphate buffer solution is prepared by adding water to 8 g of sodium chloride, 2.9 g of disodium hydrogen phosphate dodecahydrate, 0.2 g of potassium chloride, and 0.2 g of potassium dihydrogen phosphate to make the volume to 100 mL.

[0043] The subtype of the anti-benzo[a]pyrene monoclonal antibody secreted by the hybridoma cell line BBBE1H1 was identified as IgG1 using a commercially available subtype identification kit.

[0044] The antibody titer purified from mouse ascites was measured by conventional non-competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to be 1.2×10 5 , that is, the antibody dilution is 1.2×10 5The result of the solution test was positive when the concentration of the solution was doubled. The IC50 of its sensitivity to benzo[a]pyrene was determined by conventional indirect competitive ELISA to be 0.013 ng / mL. The specificity of the antibody can be evaluated by the cross-reaction rate. The indirect competitive ELISA method was used to determine the BBBE1H1 monoclonal antibody. A series of standard solutions of BaP, benzo[a]anthracene, benzo[b]fluoranthene, benzo[e]pyrene, benzo[ghi]perylene, benzo[j]fluoranthene, benzo[k]fluoranthene, chrysene, fluoranthene, and pyrene were prepared and added to the enzyme-labeled plate together with an equal volume of antibody. The solution was incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. The other steps were the same as the indirect competitive ELISA method. The competition inhibition curve was drawn with the concentration of the above-mentioned standard as the horizontal axis and the OD value B / B0 at 450 nm measured by the enzyme reader as the vertical axis. The IC 50 The cross-reaction rate is determined by the ratio of the values. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0045] CR%=(IC 50 BaP / IC 50 other analogs) × 100.

[0046] The cross-reactivity of the BBBE1H1 monoclonal antibody provided by the present invention with other structural analogs, benz[a]anthracene, benzo[b]fluoranthene, benzo[e]pyrene, benzo[ghi]perylene, benzo[j]fluoranthene, benzo[k]fluoranthene, chrysene, fluoranthene, and pyrene, is less than 15%, and some are as low as less than 1%.

[0047] Detailed results are shown in Table 1:

[0048] Table 1. Cross-reactivity of BBBE1H1 with other structural analogs

[0049]

[0050]

[0051] Affinity determination of BBBE1H1 using indirect non-competitive ELISA:

[0052] The ELISA plate was coated with BaP-OVA at concentrations of 2.0, 1.0, 0.5, and 0.25 μg / mL, 100 μL / well, at 37°C for 2 h. After blocking with blocking solution for 1 h, the antibody diluted with PBS (dilution factor 1:2) was added to the ELISA plate. The remaining steps were the same as those of the indirect non-competitive ELISA method. 450The value is the vertical axis, and the logarithm of the antibody concentration (mol / L) is the horizontal axis. Draw 4 S-shaped curves with 4 concentrations. Find the maximum OD value at the top of each S curve, i.e. ODmax, and find the antibody concentration corresponding to 50% ODmax value of each curve. Pair any two of the 4 concentrations together and calculate the affinity constant of the antibody according to the formula Ka=(n-1) / 2(n[Ab']t-[Ab]t), where [Ab']t and [Ab]t are the antibody concentrations corresponding to the two 50% maximum OD values in each group, and n is the multiple of the coating antigen concentration in each group (including three ratios of 1:2, 1:4, and 1:8). A total of 6 Ka values are obtained. The average of the six Ka values obtained shows that the affinity of the anti-benzo[a]pyrene mouse ascites antibody enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method can reach 1.6×10 9 L / moL.

[0053] Example 2 Screening of hybridoma cell line BBBE1H1

[0054] 1. Animal immunization

[0055] Six-week-old female BALB / c mice were immunized with laboratory-prepared complete benzo[a]pyrene antigen (BaP-BSA). For the first immunization, the complete benzo[a]pyrene antigen was emulsified with an equal volume of Freund's complete adjuvant and injected subcutaneously at five points on the back of the mouse's neck. The second immunization was performed 21 days later with an equal volume of the complete benzo[a]pyrene antigen emulsified with Freund's incomplete adjuvant and injected intraperitoneally. The third immunization was performed two weeks after the second, using the same immunization method. The fourth immunization was performed three weeks after the third, also using the same intraperitoneal injection. The same dose of 100 μg was administered per mouse for all four immunizations. Eight to ten days after each of the first three immunizations, blood was collected by tail-clip, and serum was isolated and assayed for serum titer using an indirect ELISA. Eight days after the third immunization, blood was collected by tail-clip, and mice with sera exhibiting relatively high titers and sensitivity were selected for a final booster immunization, using half the dose of the previous immunization.

[0056] 2. Cell Fusion

[0057] Three days after the booster immunization, cell fusion was performed using 50% polyethylene glycol (PEG) (molecular weight 1450) as a fusion agent according to conventional methods. The following steps were performed: mice were sacrificed by cervical dislocation under sterile conditions, the spleens were removed and crushed with a homogenizer, and splenocytes were separated using a filter. The cells were mixed with murine myeloma SP2 / 0 cells at a cell population ratio of 5:1-10:1, centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, and resuspended in RPMI-1640 basal medium. The mixture was centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, and the supernatant was discarded. One mL of 50% PEG was added, and the mixture was incubated for 1 minute. Once adhered, cells were resuspended in 20 mL of RPMI-1640 basal medium, centrifuged, and the supernatant discarded. The fused cells at the bottom of the tube were resuspended in 20 mL of complete cell culture medium containing 1% HAT. The suspended cells were added to 80 mL of semi-solid culture medium, mixed thoroughly, and plated into a 6-well cell culture plate at a rate of 1-2 mL / well. The plates were then incubated in a 37°C CO2 incubator. The complete cell culture medium containing 1% HAT contains 20% (volume percentage) fetal bovine serum, 75% (volume percentage) RPMI-1640 basal culture medium, 1% (weight percentage) L-glutamine, 1% (volume percentage) HEPES, 1% (volume percentage) double antibody (10,000 units per milliliter penicillin and 10,000 micrograms per milliliter streptomycin), 1% (volume percentage) growth factor (clone easy), and 1% (weight percentage) hypoxanthine-aminopterin-thymidine (HAT) and methylcellulose, which were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich.

[0058] Cell line screening and cloning

[0059] After 1-2 weeks of cell fusion, when cell colonies grow to be visible to the naked eye, clones are picked out from the culture medium with a micropipette and transferred to a 96-well cell culture plate using HAT liquid for culture. When the cells grow to 2 / 3 of the bottom of the well, the culture supernatant is aspirated for detection. A two-step screening method is used. The first step uses the indirect ELISA method to screen positive wells that are resistant to benzo[a]pyrene but not to the carrier protein BSA. The second step uses the indirect competitive ELISA method to detect the positive wells screened in the first step, using benzo[a]pyrene as the competitor, and selecting wells with higher absorbance and sensitivity (higher absorbance refers to wells with zero competitor, i.e., positive control wells, with higher final measured values; higher sensitivity refers to the competitor concentration at which the inhibition rate is 50%, also known as IC). 50 The hybridoma cell line BBBE1H1 was obtained by subcloning using the limiting dilution method and testing using the same two-step method after subcloning 4-5 times. This hybridoma cell line was deposited with the China Center for Type Culture Collection (CCTCC) at Wuhan University, Wuhan, China on April 3, 2018, under the CCTCC accession number C201882.

[0060] Example 3 Determination of the variable region sequence of the anti-benzo[a]pyrene monoclonal antibody hybridoma cell line BBBE1H1.

[0061] (1) Extraction of total RNA: Total RNA from hybridoma cell line BBBE1H1 was extracted using the total RNA extraction kit from Tiangen Company according to the instructions;

[0062] (2) Synthesize cDNA: Use the total RNA obtained in step 1 as a template and oligo(dT)15 as a primer. TM Reverse transcription was performed using the instructions of the 2II reverse transcriptase to synthesize the first-strand cDNA; the primer oligo(dT)15 was purchased from Invitrogen;

[0063] (3) PCR cloning of variable region genes: Primers were designed based on the conserved sites of mouse antibody gene sequences in GENBANK, and cDNA was used as a template to amplify the variable region genes of the antibody heavy and light chains. The PCR program was as follows: 94°C for 30 seconds, 58°C for 45 seconds, and 72°C for 1 minute, with 30 cycles of amplification and a final extension at 72°C for 10 minutes. The PCR products were separated by 1% (weight percent) agarose gel electrophoresis, and the DNA fragments were purified and recovered using a kit. The DNA fragments were ligated into the vector pMD18-T and transformed into Escherichia coli DH5α competent cells. Positive clones were picked and sent to Suzhou Hongxun Biotechnology Co., Ltd. for sequencing. The sequences of the primers are: heavy chain variable region primers are 5'-CAG GTS MAR CTG MAG GAG TCW G-3' (22mer) and 5'-CAG GGG CCAGTG GAT AGA CAG ATG GGG G-3' (28mer), where S, M, R and W are merged bases, M = A / C, R = A / G, S = G / C, W = A / T; light chain variable region primers are 5'-GAC ATC AAG ATG ACC CAG TCT CCA-3' (24mer) and 5'-CCG TTT TAT TTC CAG CTT GGT CCC-3' (24mer).

[0064] The resulting gene sequence results showed that the heavy chain variable region encoding gene sequence was 360 bp long, as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1. Based on the obtained gene sequence, it was deduced that the heavy chain variable region encoded by this gene sequence consists of 120 amino acids, as shown in SEQ ID NO: 3. The light chain variable region encoding gene sequence was 321 bp long, as shown in SEQ ID NO: 2. Based on the obtained gene sequence, it was deduced that the light chain variable region encoded by this gene sequence consists of 107 amino acids, as shown in SEQ ID NO: 4.
